Proto:Dungeon Siege

This page details one or more prototype versions of Dungeon Siege.

To do: the files have yet to be fully explored, and therefore some (especially in the code) may not yet be discovered.

Cut Code Code that is found in the prototypes, but not the release.

Builds Referenced

• B1 00.05.06.0703

Character Textures

In release, every character has what appears to be leather-stitched socks on their feet, but during Beta 1 their feet were bare.

Cut Characters

• 

  Andresa Redblade

• 

  Banthorne

• 

  Daewin

• 

  Jocelyn

• 

  Lyrall

• 

  One-Eyed Lukal

• 

  Radicus

• 

  Salak (Missing Textures)

Unfortunately all of the known cut female characters (other than Lyrall) had the same face and hair.

Cut Items

Attribute Potions

Cut by the time of release, in Beta 2 00.05.02.01.2202 the templates were still present. The given effects mirror what was found in this build of the game.

Inventory Art	Effects
	Adds 1 to Strength for 5 Minutes
	Doubles Health regeneration rate for 5 minutes
	Adds 1 to Dexterity for 5 minutes
	+10% Chance to Dodge Melee Attacks

Originally potions were split up into "Good" and "Dark". As of the earliest accessible build, Poison was the the only "dark" potion still in the game.

Potion Inventory Sprites

None of which resemble any of the sprites that would be used in the actual game. The top one seems to resemble the model used for the dropped potions, though.

Cut Armor

The vast majority of these depict items that were released and obtainable, but with different, unfinished inventory sprites.

Partially Cut Guard/Legionaire Armor

Three armors were semi-present in the release game, but being unobtainable without the use of mods, they used beta versions of their designs for the inventory sprites.

Unfinished Textures

In build Beta 1 00.05.01.06.0703 of 06/08/2001 there were files discovered that contained unfinished formats of terrain textures that appear to have been made in paint and all feature the most basic layout of a texture.

Sounds

WARNING: Many of these may be very loud. Please be cautious when listening. I tried to make them much quieter, but they may still be loud.

king_intro (opening sequence) Probably the most interesting one. It features quite a different script for the opening sequence. Arguably less fluent, but featuring much of the same ideas and plot as the release version.

Miscellaneous

• Instead of showing a sign representing the skill, the weapon you were using would instead be displayed over your head.
• The potion drinking animation was longer.
• When broken, barrels and boxes would leave a broken model instead of just gibs.
• Enemies that would gib even with gore off had non-gibbing animations.
• Instead of the snappier names of "Mana Potion"/"Health Potion", they were all references as "Potions of Health/Mana", as were the cut attribute potions.

Miscellaneous Textures

For unknown purposes, it seems that the concept art for the mascot was in the game's files during Beta 1. This was compiled from a handful of texture files.
